Marty and Margie and the whole Willner Family,
We are very sorry for your loss of Butchie. I remember all the good times we shared growing up on Christiana Ave and attending Queen of Martyrs Grammar School. I enjoyed talking to Butchie at Mike Sweeney's wake. We found out 9/10/2017 about Butchie's passing when we returned from Wisconsin. We were not able to attend Butchie's services because we did not know.
Sincerely,
Larry and Kathy Beazley

My deepest sympathies and condolences to the Wilner family on the loss of Butch.
Especially to Marge, Marty, and Joe whom I had not seen for 49 years until Mike Sweeney's wake and funeral last year. Butch was there too.
Marge is a classmate from the 1967 Queen of Martyrs Class and our 50th Reunion is October 7th. Lots of memories from the Q of M days. Butch was a grade ahead. I am sorry not to be able to come due to an illness.
May Butch Rest In Peace.

I was sorry to hear about Butch's passing. My condolences to the family. He was so kind to come to my husband Mike Sweeney's wake with his brother and sister. I grew up on Butch's block on Christiana and have nice memories of his generous and kind nature. I'm sorry I am out of town and will miss the memorial

I have known Butch all of my life. We grew up together and worked at EDON Construction.
He was a good friend and I will miss him very much.
Butch will be in my prayers.
